This year, two young curators, Anna-Antonia Strausberg (Germany / Mexico) and Philippa O’Driscoll (Great Britain) have selected works from the collection and assembled them under the title “PLAY – The Frivolous and the Serious”. The works all variously deal with the idea of playing and the game in all its variants. This topic also covers the interests of the Olbricht Foundation: both in its aim to embed art in a playful and sensual way, in the everyday life of our visitors – in particular children and young people – as well as in its ongoing occupation with the subject of collecting – art collecting, and the act of collecting in general, which can itself be seen as a “mature” form of play. “PLAY” not only features contemporary works, but also craftwork and historical artworks dating from the 16th century.
Artists in the exhibition: Mark Alexander, Jost Amman, John M Armleder, Gisela Bullacher, Jonas Burgert, André Butzer, Jake & Dinos Chapman, Adam Eck, Gama, Philippe Halsman, Uwe Henneken, Esther-Judith Hinz, Bethan Huws, Jean-Antoine Lépine, Mogens Lund & P. Jeppesen , Alex McQuilkin, Jack Pierson , Zhou Tiehai und Jorinde Voigt
